Adenomyosis and Menstrual Pain on my Wedding Night Posted: 01-30-06 20:03pm
i am getting married in march and we will
be ttc soon, i am currently on bcp to help
with the adenomyosis but i was wondering
if until after my wedding,it was ok to
skip a few pills in each pack to enhance
my chances of getting pregnant without
having to stop the bcp completly, i would
hate to have a surprise visitor who
overstays her welcome on my wedding day
and honeymoon when she has a tendency to
be a pain.. anyway, if it is ok to do so,
what days would you recommend skipping?
thanks, kelly j.
Doctors treat adenomyosis with birth
control pills in order to prevent
ovulation. This is because menstruation
occuring with ovulation in the cycle
causes pain. In adenomiosis, menstruations
become especially painful. By preventing
ovulation we prevent painful menstruations
(periods). Simultaneously, preventing
ovulation also prevents conception
(pregnancy). If you BECOME PREGNANT,
ovulations and menstruations cease.
Therefore pregnancy is a natural remedy
for adenomyosis. You can try to become
pregnant as soon as possible. Of course,
you should stop taking birth control pills
first.
